Miscarriage

Including chemical pregnancy, blighted ovum and vanishing twin

We’re so sorry that you’re going through this and understand that a little life is not a little loss. The truth is that hopes and dreams, love and yearning for a baby, our ’emotional investment’ can begin before we are even pregnant. And when we lose that baby, it really hurts. We may grieve for our baby and the loss of the future we may have planned, an entire life that should have been.

There is no sliding scale of grief, we only know that this baby was real and your grief is valid and real. And we at Philip’s Footprints acknowledge that grief.

As well as offering support, we can also signpost you to the following charities with helpful information and further support.

9th November is Early Miscarriage Awareness Day, join us as we light a candle at 7pm for at least one hour, together with people everywhere who are remembering their precious babies.
